Arctic Cooling Accelero Twin Turbo Pro VGA Cooler Review

Installation on a GeForce GTS 250

In order to test the Accelero Twin Turbo Pro, we installed it on our Zotac GeForce GTS 250, which you can check in Figure 10 with its stock cooler.

According to the manufacturer, the Twin Turbo Pro is compatible with GeForce GTS 250, but we had an incompatibility issue. The metal plate that is screwed to the chassis and came with our GeForce GTX 250 has a metal tab that interfered with the cooler. We were lucky to have another plate (that comes with another VGA cooler) and, after replacing it, we could install the cooler on our VGA. In Figure 11, you can see the standard plate that came with our GeForce GTS 250 and the smaller one (shown installed on our video card).

In Figure 12, you can see the Accelero Twin Turbo Pro installed on our VGA. We didn’t install the heatsinks on the memory chips and on the VRM transistors.
